He was a figure head at Cleveland Clinic functional medicine for a long while. The rot is wide & deep.
Done! It would be an amazing accomplishment. 🍔🌭 algorithm!

Respirator masks work.
We need local portacount options to fit test masks.
We need clean air mitigations:UVC & hepa purifiers in buildings & healthcare facilities.
No need to disable yourself to fit in, those you’re fitting in with will disregard you the minute you aren’t
healthy.
Reported & blocked.
Did you ever notice that companies that brag about clean ingredients love to make it hard to see their ingredient lists?
Jeff Foster quote that has an image of a red fall leaf at bottom. "LIFE IS HERE TO BREAK YOUR HEART~ over and over again - until you realise that heartbreak is life too. Then your heart can no longer be broken, or fixed, for that matter. So you learn to live with an exquisitely fragile heart permanently broken, permanently aflame, vulnerable and indestructible too, and you stand naked in front of life, moment by moment, breath by breath, knowing that whatever happens is totally okay somehow - even in the midst of this perfect devastation, which is now a kind of 'devastating perfection. (Even when you forget all this, which you often do.) This is freedom beyond the speaking of it."
"LIFE IS HERE TO BREAK YOUR HEART~ over and over again - until you realise that heartbreak is life too.
…….devastating perfection.

I’m tired of blood feeding insects deciding that my family are a meal!
We had good cold weather last winter! Why are the ticks & fleas so abundant this fall?
Check yourselves!
Test the tick, if you find a tick attached(time attached to infection relation is a myth).
Treat per ILADS protocol.
Mask up!
No one will care for you when you are unable to care for your disabled body.

Pretending, ignoring or denying your disability doesn’t make you able bodied. It just means you’re lying to the most important person……you!
Without acknowledgment of reality there can be no peace.
Listen to disabled folks. They have walked the path & it’s not easy.
Early 60’s Bday Ramblings: I never considered I’d be disabled. Dead yes! Disabled no. Dead would have been so much easier, much less costly, & less humiliating.

What an honor!
This mornings visitor.
When quality of life only allows little contributions, you appreciate small things.
One little daily action I am afforded is to only use limited plastic bags & wash & reuse the ones I need to use.
While I’m performing the washing, I imagine a bright future where we have better alternatives.

🦠Infection bad!
🚫💪Our immunity is not a muscle!
⚕️A respirator mask is the best way to stay healthy.
💨😤We should be investing & insisting on clean air technology requirements in public & private spaces z
Many orange cosmo flowers are on the forefront of the photo w 5 heads of sunflowers above them with green grass filling the rest of the photo.

Anticipating the winter gray & appreciating the fall colors against the blue sky.
100% on the exam and grateful for all the knowledge I’ve gained via socials.
💯% accurate!
25 yrs ago I was in bullet proof physical shape. I got a cold/virus that wasn’t terrible. I lost 40% of my physical & neuro capabilities in days. I’ve continued to loose capabilities over the yrs. I ate healthy, exercised & wasn’t spared.
I’m now mostly bed tethered. It’s not fun!

My goal is to exude this amount of I don’t give a frick this week! Oh hell for the rest of my lifetime. #Caturday
Altar to gain favor from Gravity? 🥴 I beg daily asking for some relief. So many things falling down.
Thank you
What a great person!
What masks do you use? I had Auras & it was a miserable fail for my large faced & nosed hvac guys.
gray toed, pink socks cover a pair of feet nestled about small heaps of blue blanket. The window in front of these feet show lush green trees & vegetation.
Such an amazing view & haven’t even left the driveway. My traveling bed or just change of scenery bed, when home. #Carrot #ShuttleJoy #ObligitoryMEPhoto #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis
And we do this with compassion and kindness despite the way we’ve been treated.
We show up for you even when you wouldn’t show up for us.
Please, consider saying sorry. Consider acknowledging the way you treated us.
It would mean a lot. /end
Over fly season!
The elimination of them is sucking up valuable energy.
Plus I don’t like eliminating them.
I need a very hungry pet frog that could live outside all year until fly season, then gets house privileges.
My cat & dog should be joyfully exterminating the flies but they are to bougie.
A partially dead willow tree has a silhouette of a turkey vulture perched on one of its leafless limbs. The background is a green canopy of trees.
A rare treat.

I will do NO HARM to the best of my ability
I will NOT spread pathogens (to the best of my ability)
I will avoid getting ill (so I can work)
I will adapt, learn and help others.
BECAUSE I KNOW THAT SARS2 is airborne.
